Effexor withdrawal is misery. Even missing one dose made me dizzy and migrainey and staggery. it was great when I missed a dose at my hell retail jeorb.
I stopped liking how it made me feel so I switched to Wellbutrin with GP's guidance and HEH HEH OH LORD. Mind zaps can kiss my ass. I was used to the odd involuntary jolts that went along with it (I have a hereditary benign muscle tremor thing) but the sensation of neuron static can eff right off.
Fortunately for me, I had an awesome bunch of family members who were very open about their own withdrawal issues after substance abuse. Hell--some of them I can remember their recovery process. They understood what I was on about, they were supportive, didn't call me a wuss, or call me weak, or say I was faking. It was awesome.
As for neuro-atypical counselors, my ADHD specialist has it himself. So it's not that odd to me. :)
